Republican and Democratic lawmakers gave opposing views on a video in which Trump is purportedly heard giving the order to remove then-U.S. ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch

WASHINGTON - Halfway through a dinner at the Trump Hotel, U.S. President Donald Trump can be heard giving the order to remove the U.S ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, according to a video that surfaced on Saturday.

Halfway through the recording, after one of the participants suggests Yovanovitch is a problem, Trump’s voice can be heard saying “Get rid of her! Get her out tomorrow. I don’t care. Get her out tomorrow. Take her out. Okay? Do it.”Trump has said he had the right to fire Yovanovitch, a main figure in the series of events that led to his impeachment. Trump fired her in May 2019 and he told Fox News on Friday that he was “not a fan” of Yovanovitch.

After the ABC report on Friday, Parnas found a digital recording of the comments, Bondy said, and sent it to the House Intelligence Committee, which is continuing to investigate Trump’s conduct.

🤔is that not what Presidents do !!!

So what! The President can fire anybody. Yovanovitch got too big for her britches. She thought she should be the one to call the shots in Ukraine. Hey lady, you were not elected by the people, Trump was. Zip it.

It’s normal, you snowflakes will latch on to anything.

if she was placed there by democrats she was going to be in the way of investigations or at least their mole.and obviously she's a disgruntled ex-employee in great danger of becoming accomplice in a corruption case. ImpeachmentHearings

Fake New

Nobody see anything wrong with there being a secret phone video recording here? Just me ?😳

He ordered more than her removal.. he said get rid of her, take her out.. Mafioso/gangster Term take her out means.. Not to bloody dinner but to the back alley or graveyard. As He said.. I don't care, jst do it. take her out.

We can all agree that the President can get rid of an ambassador at any time for any reason

To those with neuronal activity deficit, there is nothing wrong in firing an ambassador, what is wrong is doing it outside the proper channels which paves the way for crimes. According to other officials she was in danger. So there, don't try to defend Trump.

ah no matter what u say.. when trump says take Her out he's not saying to Dinner! Hes saying to a dark alley or a graveyard..

So what?

He can fire ambassadors at will. Next!

Sooooo, when will the lawmakers be addressing that Parnas and Fruman were at a private dinner before they even met Giuliani & he claimed not to know them, that they were associates of his lawyer? And why was Trump discussing sensitive matters with donors who have no clearance?

So what? She serves at his pleasure. Don’t they have anything better to do? How about some legislation?

😱

Removal? He says on the tape, 'Take her out.' He put a hit out on an American Ambassador coincidentally in a country that Russia is fighting a war with.

Drip, drip, drip.,,....IMPEACH!

2018.

Propagating the leftist media

And then the BoltonBomb dropped, making it yesterday’s news

As is his perfect right and duty to do as the President of the United States if he perceives any deviation fro his foreign policy 😇 it took a year to get rid of her ! That’s the scandal... more to follow

ESPIONAGE. Yet Assange is in a cell.

A year before Biden announces his run for office.

Yovanovitch is a Communist. Corrupt as it gets.

I’m not really a supporter, but even I can admit that’s totally legal and normal for a president to appoint who they want for any reason.

WHAT LINE? AGAIN ! TRUMP SAID IT! TRUMP KEEPS LIEING!! TRUMP KEEPS THREATENING AND REPUBLICANS ARE OK WITH IT!!

Call a whaaambulance 😢 FFS 🙄

POTUS can fire ambassadors at will.

minger1969

...they serve at the pleasure of the President

And this is the real reason all of these two-bit career diplomats are pissed at Trump and willing to lie. They want to punish him for firing Marie. Most are Democrats too.

Not illegal. A President can hire and fire ambassadors. Stop trying to make smoke.

Absolutely, fire her. He has the right and nothing is wrong with “The Boss” fires the employee. Trump2020 KAG

This is news?

I’m very tired of both sides. Very, very tired. If one side is lying call them out.

This admin has the BEST opsec. Jesus Christ

НЕДОПУСТИМО НЕОБДУМАННОЕ РЕШЕНИЕ ДЛЯ ПРЕЗИДЕНТА

Insurgents are attacking and setting fire to protesters’ tents in Nasiriyah in southern Iraq . The insurgents made used of unmarked civilian cars to launch the attack , indicating that the attackers are militia members.

Means nothing. This was well before corrupt Biden even announced. Anything to take the duly elected President of the United States. This is beyond sick.

The guy who's catch phrase is 'you're fired' says 'take her out' to people that have nothing to do with firing her..

realmanobrow President Trump was in the right for removing that piece of trash ambassador Marie Yovanovitch.

Ukrainians had donated more than citizens of any other country to the Clinton Foundation between 1999 and 2014.

why do you pretend there is anything irregular about that? stick to real news

realmanobrow He can fire her for no reason at all

So impeach because of....”bullying!” Lmao! This just gets funnier!

There is only one view and one interpretation of what was seen or heard. It is what it is and will not change no matter how one spins it

BREAKING NEWS: President fires employee who works at the pleasure of the President.

I hired Donald Trump to remove people like Yovanovitch.

Of course realDonaldTrump GOP downplay this and change the story. It’s damning
